Which one of y'alls' mentors did that? Now I'm really curious...
I'll bet it was Rick! He is one of the coolest, most laid back people I know (and he is living proof that judiciously applied common sense is more valuable than decades of theoretical academics). But you can tell that there is a sleeping giant hiding under all that mellowness that you don't want to tick off!

That was my thought as well Dave, I can just see Rick breaking the clamp then cracking a joke about it. All the while adding in real world information about it. Then if you crack a joke at his expense you regret it because he will get you... hehehe... fun times. I had fun when i was a "member" of 122...

Shoot, I'm not on the team, and I've seen part of that giant.

Flashback:

2000, All-star resorts, some of us from 401 fill water balloons and decided to go find 122....I don't remember Rick being too happy...nor the security guard he ran into with a bucket of water...

Well I used to bake brownies, cookies, cupcakes...you name it...for me team at the beginning of the six weeks so they would have sugar to keep them going. By the end I was tired of baking so I stopped and that annoyed them a whole lot. After the six weeks they TP'ed my house really well, left a box of brownie mix and a poem telling me to start cooking again on my doorstep.

Rick? hahaha

Actually...suprisingly...it was not rick!! it was yet another dave!!!! Dave Fahringer to be exact. He drives a MR2...and when i was drilling those annoying holes in omni wheels, minding my own business...he says "oh wait, are you sure you put those clamps on tight enough?" reaches to tighten the poor, unsuspecting clamp, and bam!! it snaps in half and we stare at it in utter confusion....quite amusing actually.

His new nickname is Superman...

Well I guess riding motorcycles and dirt bikes makes for a really strong grip. I think that's really funny. Remind me not to get on his bad side.
